Oh and by the way if you think ‘oh great free text sex’.
Well let’s consider the scriptural implications:
There’s a young man, he’s a bible basher, he’s worked out marriage is the institution for sex, anything outside of marriage is sexual immorality, but he’s young, hormones are raging. He’s either not met the right person to marry or is not in a financial position to make a marriage commitment. But he’s young and his hormones.
So he asks the question, ‘can I have a wank?’
The reply comes back ‘well the bible is effectively silent on masturbation, it talks about sexual immorality, but makes no direct reference to masturbation, the bible is effectively silent on masturbation, directly’.
The chap says ‘right, no news is good news, I’ll wank myself off senseless until I get married, and then well great sex!’.
The reply comes back ‘but there’s a catch, what are you doing whilst wanking off!’
The chap says ‘looking at porn naturally.’
Then the reply comes back ‘then you have a problem, Matthew 5:28, ‘he who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in heart’. All these women your wanking off to, you’re effectively committing adultery with.
The chap comes back ‘honeysuckle!, ok, what about this, I put the porn aside, and just have a wank, that’ll sort me with Matthew 5:28.’
The reply comes back ‘well ok but what are you thinking about whilst having a wank.’
The chap says ‘well giving to the next door neighbors wife doggy style’.
The reply comes back ‘well it’s the same thing, in your minds eye’.
The chap says ‘honeysuckle!.’
So as you read this, there are loads of commited Christians all wanking off to TV guide, and imagining themselves taking a long walk across a secluded beach. Don’t laugh, I’ve met loads of people that publicly admit they do it.
Went through this matter for months.
So in terms of text sex I guess it’s better than pornography, it’s a minds eye situation, but it’s looking low grade sexual immorality, but certainly better than sex before marriage.
And don’t forget, if you wank yourself off silly, but marry a person with sex in marriage where it should be, not shagging your partner after two dates because your in love, you sort of automatically repent, the bible always offers you repentance, the question is what is repentance?, is it as simple as saying ‘I repent’, in many ways yes, but a marriage, the acceptance of the place for sex is marriage, even after years of wanking yourself off silly. Would probably be as close to repentance as anyone will ever, in practicality.
So there you go, have fun on strangermeetup.com, how can I put this, knock yourself out.
